Unable to load the mojo 'execute' in the gmaven-plugin plugin - java-11

I upgraded java-8 to java-11 and since then I got an error on gmaven-plugin:
Error injecting constructor, java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

And in my swagger I purposely referenced an invalid value called "New type"
My goal is to fail the build when this situation happens (or any error or warning actually) but I only see a warning and my build continues as usual.
[WARNING] no property from New type
Swagger Codegen maven plugin doesn't support build failure on warnings.
You may instead validate the OpenAPI input using https://apitools.dev/swagger-cli/ before passing it to the maven plugin.

Execution default of goal org.xolstice.maven.plugins:protobuf-maven-plugin:0.6.1:compile failed: Unable to load the mojo 'compile'

I try to add org.xolstice.maven.plugins:protobuf-maven-plugin:0.6.1 into my springboot application pom.xml to generate automaticly protobuff java code when I use Maven Update Project.
The error appear sometime. If I use "Maven Update Project" and "Project > Clean ...", it will disappear sometime. However, it still there which I can't tolerate anymore.

How to use Sesame Rio with maven-shade-plugin?

When I try to use Sesame Rio in a standalone Java application packaged with the maven-shade-plugin, I get
Exception in thread "main" org.openrdf.rio.UnsupportedRDFormatException: Did not recognise RDF format object N-Triples (mimeTypes=application/n-triples, text/plain; ext=nt)

at org.openrdf.repository.base.AbstractRepositoryConnection.add(AbstractRepositoryConnection.java:255)
Running the application from Eclipse succeeds. How can I fix this?
The RDF format handlers in Rio are implemented as services, so the service descriptors have to be included in the shaded JAR. This is achieved with the ServicesResourceTransformer:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.4.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>

</goals>
<configuration>
<transformers>
<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ServicesResourceTransformer"/>

I want to execute shell commands from Maven's pom.xml

I want to execute Linux shell commands with Maven. Here is what I tried:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.1.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<executable>hostname</executable>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Here's what's been working for me:
<plugin>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<executions>
<execution><!-- Run our version calculation script -->
<id>Version Calculation</id>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<executable>${basedir}/scripts/calculate-version.sh</executable>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
The problem here is that I don't know what is expected. With your current setup, invoking the plugin on the command line would just work:
$ mvn exec:exec
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Building Q3491937
[INFO] task-segment: [exec:exec]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] [exec:exec {execution: default-cli}]
[INFO] laptop
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
The global configuration is used, the hostname command is executed (laptop is my hostname). In other words, the plugin works as expected.
Now, if you want a plugin to get executed as part of the build, you have to bind a goal on a specific phase. For example, to bind it on compile:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.1.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>some-execution</id>
<phase>compile</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<executable>hostname</executable>
</configuration>
</plugin>
And then:
$ mvn compile
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Building Q3491937
[INFO] task-segment: [compile]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] [resources:resources {execution: default-resources}]
[INFO] Using 'UTF-8' encoding to copy filtered resources.
[INFO] skip non existing resourceDirectory /home/pascal/Projects/Q3491937/src/main/resources
[INFO] [compiler:compile {execution: default-compile}]
[INFO] Nothing to compile - all classes are up to date
[INFO] [exec:exec {execution: some-execution}]
[INFO] laptop
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
Note that you can specify a configuration inside an execution.
Solved. The problem is, executable is working in a different way in Linux. If you want to run an .sh file, you should add the exec-maven-plugin to the <plugins> section of your pom.xml file.
<plugin>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<executions>
<execution>
<!-- Run our version calculation script -->
<id>Renaming build artifacts</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<executable>bash</executable>
<commandlineArgs>handleResultJars.sh</commandlineArgs>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
2 Options:
You want to exec a command from maven without binding to any phase, you just type the command and maven runs it, you just want to maven to run something, you don't care if we are in compile/package/... Let's say I want to run npm start with maven, you can achieve it with the below:
mvn exec:exec -Pstart-node
For that you need the below maven section
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>start-node</id>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<executable>npm</executable>
<arguments><argument>start</argument></arguments>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
You want to run an arbitrary command from maven while you are at a specific phase, for example when I'm at install phase I want to run npm install you can do that with:
mvn install
And for that to work you would need the below section:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>npm install (initialize)</id>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
<phase>initialize</phase>
<configuration>
<executable>npm</executable>
<arguments>
<argument>install</argument>
</arguments>
</configuration>
</execution>
Thanks! Tomer Ben David. it helped me. as I am doing pip install in demo folder as you mentioned npm install
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<executable>pip</executable>
<arguments><argument>install</argument></arguments>
<workingDirectory>${project.build.directory}/Demo</workingDirectory>
</configuration>
This worked for me too. Later, I ended-up switching to the maven-antrun-plugin to avoid warnings in Eclipse. And I prefer using default plugins when possible. Example:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>get-the-hostname</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<target>
<exec executable="bash">
<arg value="-c"/>
<arg value="hostname"/>
</exec>
</target>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
The accepted answer does not work in 2021 with version 3.0.0. The configuration tag inside the execution tag results in a message, "The parameter 'exectuable' is missing or invalid."
The solution was to move the configuration tag outside the executions tag.
<plugin>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<id>Version Calculation</id>
<executable>${basedir}/scripts/calculate-version.sh</executable>
</configuration>
</plugin>

How to get Maven to run war:exploded but not war:war

I have a Maven pom that uses <packaging>war</packaging>. But actually, I don't want build the war-file, I just want all the dependent jars collected and a full deployment directory created.
So I'm running the war:exploded goal to generate the deploy directory:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<webappDirectory>target/${env}/deploy</webappDirectory>
<archiveClasses>true</archiveClasses>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>exploded</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
The trouble is, the war file still gets built. Is there a simple way of having <packaging>war</packaging> execute the war:exploded goal instead of the war:war goal?
Or is there another simple way to do this?
The solution is quite simple. You need to override the default execution of the war plugin to disable it and add your own execution (for exploded):
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin><!-- don't pack the war -->
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-war</id>
<phase>none</phase>
</execution>
<execution>
<id>war-exploded</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exploded</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
According builtin lifecycle bindings for war packaging in package phase war:war mojo is called.
You can call previous 'prepare-package' phase - all actions will be performed and after that call mojo war:exploded
mvn prepare-package war:exploded
The results will be the same as yours but no war created.
I would like to upgrade onto #Michael Wyraz answer and just include install skip settings in case if someone executes mvn clean install build on top level of multimodule project and one of sub-module is web application.
This stands inside war module:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>war_explode</id>
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-war</id>
<phase>none</phase>
</execution>
<execution>
<id>war-exploded</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exploded</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-install</id>
<phase>none</phase>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
Without install skip build fails as it tries to install war into .m2 folder. Error message looks like this:
[INFO] --- maven-install-plugin:2.4:install (default-install) # *** ---
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:2.4:install (default-install) on project ***: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact -> [Help 1]
Executing mvn clean install -P war_explode with this settings (enclosed in maven profile named war_explode) it finishes build without error.
The only way I can think of to do what you want is to set use pom packaging (or create a custom packaging) and bind the required goals from the war packaging to the relevant phases of the lifecycle. If you go for pom packaging you can use define the war:war execution in a profile to allow you to package it, but you'll need to use the build-helper-maven-plugin attach-artifact goal to attach the war to the pom.
Note with this approach if you want to use any other war-specific processing it may cause you problems.
The lifecycle bindings for war packaging are listed in the Introduction to The Build Lifecycle (see the "Default Lifecycle Bindings - Packaging ejb / ejb3 / jar / par / rar / war" section).
To bind the relevant plugin executions to the pom packaging you would do as follows:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>process-resources</id>
<phase>process-resources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>resources</goal>
</goal>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compile-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>compile</id>
<phase>compile</phase>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
</goal>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>process-test-resources</id>
<phase>process-test-resources</phase>
<goals>

</goal>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>test</id>
<phase>test</phase>
<goals>
<goal>test</goal>
</goal>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<!-- package not wanted, install and deploy already defined for pom packaging-->
<!--define war:war execution in a profile in case it is needed-->
As far as I know (I'm still new to maven) this is not possible. The only default lifecycle you can skip is 'test'. In order to get to the deploy you have to package. You can read all about the default lifecycle order of execution here: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html#Lifecycle_Reference
